Hosting the pet party is a blast! I seriously laugh out loud and smile at each and every one of your posts.
Pets bring so much joy to our lives, and it is so much fun to share.
My next pet Party will be in October.
I think Fall is a great time, and Halloween costumes will be optional. For now, I would like to highlight a few talented women…
I met a new friend, Michelle, who
in fact, is hosting a Pet portrait giveaway. I actually have a painted portrait of Lucy, which many of you have seen and loved. It is very special to me. That certainly does not mean I would NOT want another portrait of my girl.
Here are a few samples of some gorgeous sketches Michelle does.
Original artwork is an unique way to celebrate a cherished pet. A pet portrait is a special gift for yourself or a loved one that will be treasured forever.
Michelle, is a new blogger and also features other crafts and home designs.
Really a great blog, so go check it out and enter her giveaway!
Now onto another very talented old friend of mine
Kathryn from Take my breath away.
Kathryn and I met on the decorating site Rate My space around two years ago.
Kathryn has been learning and taking photography courses for about a year now.
She is truly amazing. If you are in the Charleston, SC area, you may want to contact her, and have her do a photo shoot for you. In the meantime, check out her blog..she is a sweet blogging friend indeed!
Here are some other cute pets….
from the party, still going on til Midnight tonight.
Teddy the World traveler….so funny!
So may wonderful pets and stories…still time to join and enjoy.
And still time to get in on the chalk paint giveaway
Thanks for all you sweet comments on my haircut! 45 is not so bad after all!

I am so glad you are going to host another pet party. I have been thinking about a post about how Zoey follows me everywhere and now I have a deadline. Deadlines are always motivation for me. I loved the pet party and I laughed a ton too.
Thanks for hosting such a fun party.

Sorry I missed the party. Busy at work this week. I will say the Rusty Rooster Bassets have been hot on the trail of a bunny in our backyard. I wish that darn thing would find its way out!
